Progress report

I've now painted most of that massive figure wip box (59 figures or so), although some figures still need a wash and some highlights, and all need basing. I also completed that Warlord Sdkfz222, and I'm pretty happy how that turned out - although the pictures don't do it much justice.

I have some AT guns and the 20mm Breda to paint, then there's a row of vehicles to do (they've only been primed dark yellow): 2 Pz IV, a Mathilda II, and Pz II and the Morris 2 pdr portee.

Some pictures (note I can't seem to get the lighting right, so most pictures are pretty bad...)

Santa Clause is coming to town. Twice.

I've been hearing a lot these last few years on 2 Secret Santa projects: the Secret Santa and the Santa Clause, both originally initiated by Ian over at The Blog With No Name. Although the Santa Clause is now run by Christ Stoessen at Wargamer's Odds and Ends

These are two separate projects:
Secret Santa where you buy someone a wargaming-related gift worth about £15 and someone else does the same for you: http://walladvantage2.blogspot.se/2015/09/its-secret-santa-time-again-secret.html
The Santa Clause where you buy a mini worth about £5, paint it and then send it to someone: http://cstoesen.blogspot.se/2015/09/the-santa-clause-2015.html

I'll be participating for the first time this year and I really think it will be fun. I just hope it's not Thomas or Laffe that get to send me stuff, 'cause then they'll force me into a new project (again). And Jocke is not much better, either ;-)
